Valuable Remedy.

A reliable farmer, writing to an agricultural journal, says if you bore quarter of an inch nole into the heart of tree that is in fected with insects and inject as much dry, common sulphur as possible, then insert short Llug to keep the sulphur in place, it will cure blight, make the tree strong and hearty and in no way injure 1t. This is a very valuable boon to fruitgrowers, as the sul- phur goes through all the parts of the tree, being absorbed from the heart, and makes 1t good healthy color. The writer of this item saw trees that were nearly dead from some kind of insect, that were living and had a beautiful, thrifty, green appearance after being treated as above. This is one of the most valuable dis coveries of the age to fruit growers, and we present it for the benefit of our readers Shasta Courier.

Eggs in Winter.

Again would we remind the farmer that it is useless to expect hens to lay during the winter ur- less some considerable pains are taken for their comfort. The first thing necessary is proper shelter. This must be provided, and should be so constructed as to afford warmth and yet plenty of ventila- tion. Then they must be watered and fed regularly every morning and evening. Feeding fowls in winter is very important matter. Il is not enough to simply throw them a sufficient amount of corn or other grain, but they should also have such scraps of meat, bread, potatoes and other vege- tables as are left from the kitchen or table. These should be put in a vessel and set on the stove in the morning as soon as the fire is built, and after boiling a few moments some cornmeal and an equal quantity of wheat bran mixed herewith and the whole fed to the fowls while yet warm. With this for the mornings mess, then cover the henhouse flour with trash of any kind, over which scatter some grains of rye or oats, mixing the whole together. This will keep the hens in exercise the whole afternoon, when just before going to roost give them light feed of whole corn, not forgetting to supply them with good fresh water at all times. There is no animal will drink more for its size then a hen, or any to which water seems more indispensable. A box kept filled with old plaster, lime, or pounded-up oyster shells, to which the hens can have free ac- cess, should also be provided them. With this treatment and with con- venient nest boxes, there will be very little trouble in securing liberal supply of eggs during the winter; at a time, too, when they bring the highest price, and hens thus fond to be as profitable, in proportion to their value and cost of feed, as any other stock on the form

Bill Nye says: Don't attempt to cheat an editor out of a years subscription of his paper or any sum. Cheat the minister, cheat the butcher-any ybody dy-but if you have any regard for your future consequences, don't fool with a printer. He will get even with you and more too. You will be put up for some office sometime, or want some public favor for yourself or some of your friends, and just when your luck is a thing of beauty and a joy forever, the printer will open upon, and knock your air castles into a cooked hat at the first blow.

Where Jet Comes From.

Jet is the commonest substance in use for personal ornaments, and yet not one out of one thous- and persons knows where it comes from or what it IS composed of. The English jet, which is the most popular, is dug on the coast of Yorkshire, near Whitby and Scar borough. The trade from Whitby dates back to the latter part of the sixteenth century, and jet is known to have been used for orna- ments by the early Britons and their Roman conquerors. The price of the raw material is from ten to eighteen shiliings poupd. It is worked altogether by hand. Pieces are sawed to the prol CT size and then the pattern scratched upon the jet by sharp pointed instrument. Then the workman takes a knife and commences to whittle the jet just as you might q stick of wood, the material work ing easily. With this knife and with small chisels he works out the pattern, after which the piece taken to grindstone and the rough parts ground eff Swift whirling wheels do the polishing, except where there are deep incis- ions in ornaments, in which case boys finish the polishing with thin strips of list. Brilliancy is given to the ornament by sprinkling on a little rouge and polishing lightly with a rubber. Jet was once used almost entirely in the way of pins, bracelets. etc, but now the larger part of the output is made up into dress trimmings.-St. Louis Re publican.

A Mild Protest.

'Gentlemen," said the judge of an Arkansas court to the attorneys during a trial, q don't mind your shooting at each other occasionally if the circumstances seem to justify it, but I see that one of your bull lets has hit an overcoat belonging to the Court and broken a quart flask in the inside pocket. I wish it to be distinctly understood that if there is any more such careless shooting in this court I'll lift scalp of the galoot that does f. Now go ahead with the case"

Hardships of a Western Editor.

Our paper is two days late this week." writes a Nebraska editor, owing to an accident to our press. When we started to run the edi- ton Wednesday night, as usual. one of the guy rodes gave way, allowing the forward glider luke to fall and break the funker fapper. This, of course, as any, one who kLows anything about press will readily understand. left the gang plank with only the flip flap to support it which also dropped and broke on the wopper chock. This loosened the funkin from between the ramrod and the fibber snatcher, which also caused trouble. The report that the de- lay was caused by overindulgence in intoxicating stimulants by our self is tissue of falsehoods, the peeled appearance of our right eye being caused by our going into the hatchway of the press ID our anxiety to start it, and pull ing the coupling pin after the slap bang was broken, which caused the dingus to rise up and welt us in the optic. We expect a brand new glider fuke on this afternoons train"

III their columns may be designed, directly or
indirectly, TO promote somebody's business in
terests, is charged up at good round figures aud
promptly paid for. There are no delinqnenis
ON the subscription lists of the metropolitan
press.
That 1t is otherwise with the country
press, Is due to its own recognition of Il
senseless custom, born of old time practice,
when the newspaper was treated as de-
pendent upon, rather than as promoter
and leader of public enterprise. Such of
the country press as are still in slavery to
the custom, confesses to meekness. indie
pendence anywhere commands respect. As
the Inter Ocean remarks:
A newspaper that is worth reading or adver-
Using that is worth having is worth paying for.
A metropolitan newspaper would go bankrupt
IN year If 1t submitted TO the bleeding process
which country publishers too frequently under
go.
The subscriber to paper or anadyertiser
in it, has no moral or business claim upon
1t for additional favors. If one buys at the
counter Of the merchant a yard of cotton
goods, he does not expect the seller to
throw in" suit of clothing. Yet prac-
tice largely obtains in rural journalism,
that is as absurd and unjust as would be a
demand upon the grocer to give roll of
butter with every loaf of bread sold. There
is no reason why the newspaper should be
called upon to do more for its customer
than any other business The county press
that is crippled by the practice referred to,
has 1t III its power to correct it. Let it give
full value for all it sells, and demand of
the buyer full consideration for all he pur-
chases. The advertising columns of a
newspaper worth advertising in at all, give
full compensation for the money paid. To
demand and expect i'll addition, as great
space gratis in other columns because of
the advertisement paid for, equals the UNI
reason of asking the trader who sells a
horse to throw in" buggy and harness.
The rural press that submits to such exact

Ten CENTS AN ACRE FOR LAND.-The
Utica IN. W Press says: A sale of 1000
acres of land belonging TO Mrs. }. Watson
Williams, being part of the Munson estate,
was held IN Utica Yesterday forenoon. The
land is in the RamsenbeIg patent and
Walker tract, Oneida and Herkimer
counties. There was a fair attendance of
bidders, mostly from out of town, although
bids did not run high. The general i'm
preston seemed to be that man who had
none of the land was better off than he
who had. and as a consequence most of
the plats were started at cent per acre and
increased by 1-cent bids until the selling
price was reached. Only in one or two
cases was the bidding what might be called
spirited. Some of the sales were: Five
hundred acres, 10 cents per acre; 334 acres,
So cents per acre. % acres, 20 cents per
acre; 434 acres, 5 cents per acre; SO acres,

STATE PRINTING OFFICE.
THE OFFICIAL REPORTS OF EX.
PENSES UPON TEXTBOOKS.
Skirmishing for the Funds Lost Be-
tween the Cost of Books and
Amount of Pay-roiis.

The manner in which nearly $57, 600, ap-
propriated by the Legislature for making
school books for the children of the State,
has disappeared in Mr.. Shoals brief Super
intendency of the State Printing Office, is a
matter of deep interest to all the people of
California. 1t becomes 6 matter of increased
interest by the fact that the official reports
of the same officer upon the specific cost of
books manufactured under his supervision
fails to account, as has already been shown
in these columns, for but small portion of
the funds that his pay-rolls and vouchers
cover. In order to throw all possible light
upon the unpleasant darkness of the situa-
ton. the RECORD UNION has obtained from
the records and vouchers on file in the of
fees of the Controller and State Board of
Examiners the following statement upon
the subject. For Completeness OF showing,
reference is made back TO June 80, 1856,
the commencement of the present fiscal
year-the next item giving the amount ex-
pended during the following six months
under Colonel Ayers administration. Ref
erence has before been made to the $4,000
as on hand January /, 1887, and that 10
this was added 1900 by an additional ap-
preparation last winter, making nearly
S37 600. Colonel Ayers remained in office
until January Goth, and, as will be seen,
vouchers for expenses of the book depart
ment, the last of which were approved
January 18th, amounted to s., o02 43. This,
of course, must be subtracted from the
$50, $40 90, to leave the amount which came
forward to meet the textbook work exc
cuted by Superintendent Shoaff. The de-
tail of expenses during the badly wrecked
administration of the present State Printer
succeed the figures above referred to, and
